The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024 (the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K) and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These risks are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include additional factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Furthermore, new risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We cannot assure you that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events, or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

 

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

 

The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to conform such statements to actual results or revised expectations, except as required by law.

 

Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Teknova,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to Alpha Teknova, Inc.

The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024 (the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Refer to Notes to Financial Statements—Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” within the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a full list of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The information in those notes has not changed except as a result of normal adjustments in the interim periods.

Teknova has determined that it operates in one reporting unit, one operating segment, and one reportable segment, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Company reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance.

Going Concern

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern, requires management to evaluate an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the financial statements are available for issuance. Management performed an assessment to determine whether there were conditions or events that, considered individually or in the aggregate, raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the accompanying unaudited financial statements are being issued.

Previous going concern assessments indicated negative conditions and events related to the Company’s limited capital resources to fund ongoing operations and the Company’s ability to comply with future financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement (defined in Note 10), both of which raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as described in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. However, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2024 and as a result of recent business improvements and actions taken by management in the current fiscal year to amend its credit agreement, reduce operating costs, and raise additional capital (as described further in Note 2 below), management believes that there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the accompanying

10


 

unaudited financial statements are being issued. Debt service requirements in the future require that the Company continues to execute its plans both in terms of operations and financial results. Additionally, unforeseen events or changes in assumptions may occur and result in material differences between the Company’s future financial results or forecasts and the current financial forecast, and those differences could result in management concluding in the future that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern based upon the new information.

Private Placement Offering

On July 11, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement) and a registration rights agreement in connection with a private placement (the Offering) with certain accredited investors. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to offer and sell in the Offering 12,385,883 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.00001 par value per share, at an offering price of $1.24 per share. The Company’s controlling stockholder, Telegraph Hill Partners Management Company LLC, through its affiliates Telegraph Hill Partners V, L.P. and THP V Affiliates Fund LLC, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and member of its board of directors, Stephen Gunstream, and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Matthew Lowell, participated in the Offering and, collectively, purchased an aggregate of 12,217,740 shares. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $15.4 million from the Offering, before deducting offering expenses of $0.2 million. Offering expenses were included as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet. The Offering closed on July 12, 2024.

Reduction in Workforce

On January 11, 2024, the Company carried out a reduction in workforce of approximately 35 positions, aimed at reducing operating expenses. The Company incurred $1.3 million of costs in connection with the reduction in workforce related to severance pay and other termination benefits. The costs associated with the reduction in workforce were recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2024, in general and administrative expenses.

On February 1, 2023, the Company carried out a reduction in workforce of approximately 40 positions, aimed at reducing operating expenses. The Company incurred $0.7 million of costs in connection with the reduction in workforce related to severance pay and other termination benefits. The costs associated with the reduction in workforce were recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2023, in general and administrative expenses.

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC 480) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

Short-term Held-to-Maturity Investments

The Company invests excess cash balances in short-term U.S. Treasuries. Investments are classified based on the facts and circumstances present at the time of purchase. The appropriateness of that classification is subsequently reassessed at each reporting date. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has both the ability and intention to hold these investments until maturity and therefore has classified these investments as held-to-maturity and recorded them at amortized cost which approximates fair value and presented them in “Short-term investments, held -to-maturity” on the balance sheet. The fair value of the Company's short-term investments was based on quoted prices in active markets for these investments (Level 1). The income recognized for these investments is recorded within interest income on the statement of operations.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. Additionally, all disclosure requirements under the guidance are also required for public entities with a single reportable segment. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all

11


 

prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company will first apply this standard in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and continues to evaluate the impact this standard will have on the Company’s disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure in the rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciliation items in some categories if the items meet a quantitative threshold. The guidance also requires disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal (national), state and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Recent Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Final Rules Not Yet Adopted

In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, which requires registrants to provide certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports. The rules require information about a registrant’s climate-related risks that have materially impacted, or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business, results of operations, or financial condition. In addition, certain disclosures related to severe weather events and other natural conditions will be required in the registrant’s audited financial statements. Disclosure requirements will begin phasing in for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. On April 4, 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these new final rules on its financial statements and disclosures.

 

Note 3. Revenue Recognition

Teknova recognizes revenue from the sale of manufactured products and services when the Company transfers control of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Control is transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain benefits from the goods or services. The majority of the Company’s sales agreements contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer.

On July 8, 2024, the Company entered into a financing agreement with First Insurance Funding for the financing of the Company’s D&O liability insurance and related policies. Under the terms of the financing agreement, the Company will pay a total of $0.6 million in premiums, taxes and fees, plus interest at an annual percentage rate of 8.49% in seven monthly separate installment payments commencing on July 25, 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company made a down payment on the policy of $0.2 million to the insurer and three monthly installments for an aggregate of $0.2 million to First Insurance Funding. As of September 30, 2024, the Company owed $0.2 million for insurance premiums and accrued interest.

 

Note 10. Long-term Debt, Net

On March 8, 2024, the Company entered into limited waivers and amendments (collectively Amendment No. 5) to (i) the May 10, 2022, Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement (Term Loan), as amended on November 8, 2022, March 28, 2023, July 13, 2023, and September 19, 2023 and (ii) the May 10, 2022, Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement (Revolving Loan) as amended on November 8, 2022, March 28, 2023, July 13, 2023 and September 19, 2023 (together, the Amended Credit Agreement), in each case with the Company as borrower and with MidCap Financial Trust (MidCap) as agent and lender, and the additional lenders from time to time party thereto.

Amendment No. 5 modifies the credit facility established under the Amended Credit Agreement, which provided for a $57.1 million credit facility (the Credit Facility) consisting of a $52.1 million senior secured term loan (the Term Loan) and a $5.0 million working capital facility (the Revolver).

The interest on the Term Loan is based on the forward-looking one-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate adjusted upward by 0.10% (Term SOFR) plus an applicable margin of 7.00%, subject to a Term SOFR floor of 4.50%. If any advance under the Term Loan is prepaid at any time, a prepayment fee is charged based on the amount being prepaid and an applicable percentage amount, such as 4%, 3%, or 1%, based on the date the prepayment is made. Interest on an outstanding balance under the Revolver is payable monthly in arrears at an annual rate of Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 4.00%, subject to a Term SOFR floor of 4.50%.

The Amended Credit Agreement includes minimum net revenue requirements that are measured on a trailing twelve-month basis and a minimum cash requirement. Amendment No. 5 reduced the minimum net revenue requirements for future periods up to and including for the twelve months ending December 31, 2024—for example, the Company’s minimum net revenue requirement was reduced for the twelve months ending December 31, 2024, from $42.0 million to $34.0 million. Amendment No. 5 also removed those requirements for the periods ending January 31, 2025 through December 31, 2025, instead requiring that for each applicable twelve-month period ending after December 31, 2024, the Company’s minimum net revenue requirement will be determined by MidCap in its reasonable discretion in consultation with the Company’s senior management and based on financial statements and projections delivered to MidCap in accordance with the financial reporting requirements in the Amended Credit Agreement, so long as the minimum net revenue requirements for those periods shall not be less than the greater of (x) the applicable minimum net revenue requirement for the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the immediately preceding month and (y) $34.0 million. In addition, Amendment No. 5 also removed the advance rate for finished goods inventory in the determination of the borrowing base for the Revolver and increased the minimum cash requirement from $9.0 million to $10.0 million. Under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, cash and cash equivalents as well as short-term investments in U.S. Treasuries are included in the determination of the minimum cash covenant. Finally, Amendment No. 5 conditions the next borrowing under the Revolver on the Company achieving net revenue for the preceding twelve-month period of at least $38.0 million down from $45.0 million. As a condition to the effectiveness of Amendment No. 5, the Company also issued an equity-classified warrant with a fair value of $0.1 million as described further in “Note 11. Stockholder’s Equity.” This warrant was recorded as additional debt issuance costs, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Amended Credit Agreement using the effective interest method.

The maturity date of the Credit Facility is May 1, 2027. On the date of termination of the Term Loan or the date on which the obligations under the Term Loan become due and payable in full, the Company will pay an exit fee in an amount equal to 9.00% of the total aggregate principal amount of term loans made pursuant to the Term Loan (including amendments thereto) as of such date. All loans issued under the Credit Facility are collateralized by the Company’s assets.

Note 11. Stockholders’ Equity

At-the-Market Facility

On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a sales agreement (the ATM Facility) with Cowen and Company, LLC (Cowen), under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of its common stock having aggregate gross proceeds of up to $50.0 million. The issuance and sale of these shares pursuant to the ATM Facility are deemed “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and are registered under the Securities Act. The Company will pay a commission of up to 3.0% of gross sales proceeds of any common stock sold under the ATM Facility. The aggregate market value of shares eligible for sale under the ATM Facility will be subject to the limitations of General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, to the extent required under such instruction.

Warrant to Purchase Common Stock

On March 8, 2024, as a condition to the effectiveness of Amendment No. 5, the Company issued to MidCap Funding XXVII a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 125,000 shares (the Common Warrant) of common stock with an exercise price of $2.9934 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein.

The Company determined that the Common Warrant is not a liability within the scope of ASC 480, but met the requirements to be classified within stockholders’ equity, because the warrant is indexed to the Company’s common stock and met all of the conditions for equity classification in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Common Warrant was recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital in the statements of stockholders’ equity at the time of issuance. The Common Warrant was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) fair value of common stock of $2.8500, (ii) exercise price of $2.9934, (iii) term of 5 years, (iv) dividend rate of 0%, (v) volatility of 36.70%, and (vi) risk free interest rate of 4.06%.

On October 15, 2024, MidCap exercised the Common Warrant in full and the Company issued 65,036 shares of common stock through a cashless exercise in accordance with the conversion terms.

Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company maintains a stock incentive plan that permits the granting of incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance awards, and other stock-based awards. The equity-based awards for employees generally vest over a four-year period, pursuant to two different vesting schedules. For initial equity-based awards granted to employees, the first vest is generally a one-year cliff vest, followed by monthly vesting for the final three years. Thereafter, annual equity-based awards granted to employees typically vest monthly over the four-year vest term. The initial equity-based awards granted to the Company’s non-employee, independent directors upon appointment to the board of directors will vest over a three-year period, with the first vest being a one-year cliff, followed by monthly vesting over the remaining two years. Thereafter, annual equity-based awards granted to the Company’s non-employee, independent directors will cliff vest after one year from the date of grant.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company maintains an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP) that authorizes the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to purchase rights granted to eligible employees. Unless otherwise determined by the Company’s board of directors, shares of the Company’s common stock will be purchased for the accounts of employees participating in the Company’s ESPP at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the first day of an offering; or (ii) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of purchase. Offering periods are generally six months long; offering periods begin on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Company issued zero and 54,314 shares of common stock under the ESPP during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The Company issued zero and 82,034 shares of common stock under the ESPP during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Repricing of Outstanding and Unexercised Options

In January 2024, the Company’s board of directors approved a one-time repricing of certain previously granted and still outstanding vested and unvested stock option awards held by eligible employees, executive officers, and non-employee directors. As a result, the exercise price for these awards will be lowered to $2.97 per share effective September 14, 2025, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Stock Market on March 14, 2024, so long as the holder remains employed by the Company or continues to serve as a member of the board of directors through September 14, 2025 absent earlier trigger events defined in the option repricing plan. No other terms of the stock options were modified, and the stock options will continue to vest according to their original vesting schedules and will retain their original expiration dates. As a result of the repricing, 1,631,016 vested and unvested stock options outstanding as of March 14, 2024, with original exercise prices ranging from $3.02 to $27.49, were repriced.

The repricing on March 14, 2024, resulted in incremental stock-based compensation expense of $0.9 million, of which $0.5 million related to vested stock option awards and was expensed on the repricing date. The remaining $0.4 million related to unvested stock option awards and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted-average vesting period of those awards of approximately 2.38 years as of March 14, 2024.

respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options was $4.6 million at September 30, 2024, which is expected to be recognized as expense over the weighted-average period of 2.90 years.

Stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units was $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock units was $0.4 million at September 30, 2024, which is expected to be recognized as expense over the weighted-average period of 1.62 years.

Stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP was not significant for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and not significant and $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Total compensation cost related to the ESPP not yet recognized was not significant at September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, an insignificant amount has been withheld on behalf of employees for future purchases under the ESPP.

 

Note 13. Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Companys income tax benefit was not significant, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, when the Company recorded a minimal income tax provision. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 0.1% and (0.1)%, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate primarily due to operating losses not expected to produce an income tax benefit.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Companys income tax benefit was not significant, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when the Company recorded a minimal income tax provision. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 0.2% and (0.0)%, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate primarily due to operating losses not expected to produce an income tax benefit.

The Company had insignificant unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2024 and 2023. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not expect the balance of unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next twelve months. The Company has not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2024 or 2023.

 

Note 14. Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents to the extent they are dilutive. For purposes of this calculation, stock options, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase rights, and warrants to purchase common stock, are considered to be common stock equivalents but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive for all periods presented.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Note 15. Related Parties

The Company has identified Meeches LLC (Meeches) as a related party through common control. Meeches is controlled by Ted Davis and Irene Davis. Irene Davis is a former officer and current director, Ted Davis is a founder and former director, and both are greater than five percent stockholders of the Company. Prior to May 16, 2023, the Company leased certain real property in Mansfield, Massachusetts, from Meeches. For each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not make any lease payments to Meeches. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company paid Meeches lease payments zero and $0.1 million, respectively.

 

Note 16. Contingencies

From time to time, we may become involved in lawsuits and other claims arising from our ordinary course of business. The Company regularly evaluates its exposure to threatened or pending litigation and other business contingencies. Because of the uncertainties related to the amount of loss from litigation and other business contingencies, the recording of losses relating to such exposures requires significant judgment about the potential range of outcomes. We establish loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. If a loss is not both probable and reasonably estimable, or if an exposure to loss exists in excess of the amount accrued, the Company assesses whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred. If there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred, the Company will disclose the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss if it is material and an estimate can be made, or disclose that such an estimate cannot be made. The determination as to whether a loss can reasonably be considered to be possible or probable is based on our assessment, together with legal counsel, regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter. As additional information about current or future litigation or other contingencies becomes available, the Company will assess whether adjustments should be made to legal accruals.

In August 2023, a former Teknova employee filed a claim with the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency alleging various causes of action under California’s labor, wage, and hour laws. The plaintiff generally alleged that Teknova did not appropriately calculate and pay meal break premiums and otherwise failed to calculate and pay appropriate overtime wages or bonuses to certain of its California non-exempt employees. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had accrued its best estimate of potential loss related to a possible settlement of the claims of the former employee and other employees who may assert similar claims, in the amount of $0.3 million, which is included within “Accrued liabilities” on the Balance Sheet. On June 6, 2024, a mediation took place, in the course of which Teknova agreed to settle the plaintiff’s claims for $0.4 million (the Settlement), resulting in an incremental accrual of $0.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Because the plaintiff brought his claims on behalf of himself as an individual and as a representative of a purported class of others similarly situated, a court must approve the Settlement before Teknova will pay any amounts pursuant to the Settlement. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has therefore accrued $0.4 million within “Accrued liabilities” on the Balance Sheet.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes thereto included in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K) filed on March 27, 2024, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). For a discussion of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should review the risk factors identified in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Item 1A, Risk Factors, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As in Item 1. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in this Item 2, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Teknova,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Alpha Teknova, Inc.

Overview

Since our founding in 1996, we have been producing critical reagents for the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel therapies, vaccines, and molecular diagnostics. Our more than 2,500 active customers span the entire continuum of the life sciences market, including leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, contract development and manufacturing organizations, in vitro diagnostics franchises, and academic and government research institutions. Our Company is built around our knowledge, methods, and know-how in our proprietary manufacturing processes, which are highly adaptable and configurable. These proprietary processes enable us to manufacture and deliver high-quality, custom, made-to-order products with short turnaround times and at scale, across all stages of our customers’ product development, from early research through commercialization.

We have two primary product categories: Lab Essentials and Clinical Solutions. We offer three primary product types: (i) pre-poured media plates for cell growth and cloning; (ii) liquid cell culture media and supplements for cellular expansion; and (iii) molecular biology reagents for sample manipulation, resuspension, and purification. Our liquid cell culture media and supplements and molecular biology reagents are available in both of our two product categories; pre-poured media plates are available in our Lab Essentials category only.

We are ISO 13485:2016 certified, enabling us to manufacture products for use in diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Our certification allows us to offer solutions across the entire customer product development workflow, supporting our customers need for materials in greater volume and that meet increasingly stringent quality requirements as they scale from research to commercialization.

We manufacture our products at our Hollister, California, headquarters and stock inventory of raw materials, components, and finished goods at that campus. We rely on a limited number of suppliers for certain raw materials, and we have no long-term supply arrangements with our suppliers, as we order on a purchase order basis. We ship our products directly from our warehouse in Hollister, California, to our customers and distributors, generally pursuant to purchase orders. We typically recognize revenue when products are shipped.

We generated revenue of $9.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024, which represents an increase of $1.4 million compared to revenue of $8.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, only 5.4% and 4.2%, respectively, of our revenue was generated from customers located outside of the United States. We generated revenue of $28.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which represents a decrease of $0.3 million compared to revenue of $28.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, only 4.7% and 4.1%, respectively, of our revenue was generated from customers located outside of the United States. Our sales outside of the United States are denominated in U.S. Dollars.

We had an operating loss of $7.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to an operating loss of $8.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023. We had an operating loss of $20.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to an operating loss of $24.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. While our expenses may fluctuate over the short term, we expect our expenses will continue to increase in future periods, but at a slower rate, in connection with our ongoing activities as we:

 

21


 

attract, hire, and retain qualified personnel;
invest in processes and infrastructure to improve operating efficiency and expand capacity at our facilities, including the ramp up of our new, state-of-the-art manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution facilities; and
build our brand and market, and sell our products and services.

Impact of Broader Economic Trends on Our Business

We are closely monitoring economic uncertainty in the U.S. and abroad. General inflation in the U.S. has risen to levels not experienced in recent decades. While the rate of inflation has moderated in 2024, general inflation, including rising prices for our raw materials and other inputs, as well as rising salaries and other expenses, negatively impact our business by increasing our cost of sales and operating expenses. In addition, during 2023 and early 2024, the U.S. Federal Reserve has raised interest rates in response to concerns about inflation, and although the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered interest rates in September of 2024, the direction and timing of future interest rate changes remains uncertain. Inflation, together with increased interest rates, may cause our customers to reduce, delay, or cancel orders for our goods and services, thereby causing a decrease in or change in timing of sales of our products and services. We cannot predict the impact of future inflation and interest rate changes on the results of our operations. For further information regarding the impact of these economic factors on the Company, please see the risk factors identified in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Total revenue was $9.6 million and $8.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Lab Essentials revenue was $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.6%, compared to $7.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in Lab Essentials revenue was attributable to lower average revenue per customer, partially offset by an increased number of customers.

Clinical Solutions revenue was $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $1.4 million, or 229.0%, compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in Clinical Solutions revenue was primarily attributable to an increased number of customers and, to a lesser extent, higher average revenue per customer.

Revenue from U.S. sales was $9.1 million and $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Revenue from U.S. sales as a percentage of our total revenue was consistent period over period, representing 94.6% and 95.8% of our total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Revenue from international sales was $0.5 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Gross profit percentage was 0.9% and 18.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in gross profit percentage was primarily driven by $2.8 million of non-recurring and non-cash charges related to the disposal of expired inventory and write down of excess inventory created in the second half of 2022 when we increased production to meet high demand. Excluding the $2.8 million of non-recurring and non-cash charges, the gross profit percentage for the three months ended September 30, 2024, would have been 29.8%, or an increase of more than 10% primarily driven by higher Clinical Solutions revenue coupled with reduced headcount.

Total other expenses, net was $0.1 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in total other expenses, net was primarily due to the $0.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Additionally, interest expense was lower due to a lower debt balance outstanding despite higher interest rates, partially offset by higher interest income earned on short-term liquid investments.

Lab Essentials revenue was $22.1 million in each of the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Lab Essentials revenue was consistent as the decline in average revenue per customer was offset by a similar increase in number of customers.

Clinical Solutions revenue was $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 10.4%, compared to $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in Clinical Solutions revenue was attributable to lower average revenue per customer, partially offset by an increased number of customers.

Excluding the $2.8 million of non-recurring and non-cash charges, gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, would have been 27.6%. The decrease in gross profit was also driven by increased overhead costs, largely depreciation expense following the completion of our new manufacturing facility in the prior year, which were partially offset by reduced headcount.

Research and development expenses were $2.2 million and $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by reduced headcount and supplies expense.

Sales and marketing expenses were $4.8 million and $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by reduced headcount.

General and administrative expenses were $17.8 million and $19.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Excluding the one-time, non-recurring charges related to the reduction in workforce of $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the non-recurring charges related to the reduction in workforce of $0.7 million and the $0.4 million write off related to ATM Facility costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.8 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was driven by reduced headcount and spending, primarily on professional fees and insurance, partially offset by increased stock-based compensation expense related to the stock option repricing as well as facility costs. See “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation” for a more detailed discussion of the stock option repricing.

Amortization of intangible assets was consistent at $0.9 million for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Additionally, interest expense was lower due to a lower debt balance outstanding despite higher interest rates, partially offset by higher interest income earned on short-term liquid investments.

The effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate primarily due to operating losses not expected to produce an income tax benefit.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary sources of financing for our operations are our (i) initial public offering, which we completed in June 2021 (IPO) and resulted in net proceeds to us of $99.1 million, (ii) registered direct offering and concurrent private placement completed in September 2023 (collectively, the September 2023 Offerings), which resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of $22.9 million before deducting offering expenses of $0.4 million and the prepayment of $10.0 million owed under the Term Loan as discussed below, and (iii) private placement completed in July 2024 (the July 2024 Offering), which resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of $15.4 million before deducting offering expenses payable by the Company.

To facilitate our expected growth, we have used our sources of liquidity to make investments to expand our operations and increase capacity, and may continue to do so in the future. In particular, we have completed the build out of our new manufacturing facility and have made improvements to our warehouse and distribution facilities, all located in Hollister, California.

Our principal liquidity requirements are to fund our operations and capital expenditures. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred net losses of $7.6 million and $21.0 million, respectively. In addition, as of September 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $112.8 million and $12.1 million in borrowings outstanding under our Term Loan (defined below). As of September 30, 2024, we had $36.2 million of working capital, which included $31.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

As of September 30, 2024, we had an outstanding principal amount of $12.1 million under a senior secured term loan (the Term Loan) pursuant to Amendment No. 5 to our Credit Agreement with MidCap Financial Trust (MidCap). On March 8, 2024, we entered into limited waivers and amendments (collectively Amendment No. 5, or, as amended, the Amended Credit Agreement) which

27


 

includes a waiver from MidCap of the revenue covenant violations for each of the periods ending November 30, 2023 and January 31, 2024. Amendment No. 5 also reduced the revenue covenants for future periods up to and including for the twelve months ending December 31, 2024, from $42.0 million to $34.0 million. Amendment No. 5 also removed those requirements for the periods ending January 31, 2025 through December 31, 2025, instead requiring that for each applicable twelve-month period ending after December 31, 2024, our minimum net revenue requirement will be determined by MidCap in its reasonable discretion in consultation with the our senior management and based on financial statements and projections delivered to MidCap in accordance with the financial reporting requirements in the Amended Credit Agreement, so long as the minimum net revenue requirements for those periods shall not be less than the greater of (x) the applicable minimum net revenue requirement for the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the immediately preceding month and (y) $34.0 million. In addition, Amendment No. 5 also removed the advance rate for finished goods inventory in the determination of the borrowing base for the Revolver and increased the minimum cash requirement from $9.0 million to $10.0 million. Under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, cash and cash equivalents as well as short-term investments in U.S. Treasuries are included in the determination of the minimum cash covenant. Finally, Amendment No. 5 conditions the next borrowing under the Revolver on the Company achieving net revenue for the preceding twelve-month period of at least $38.0 million down from $45.0 million. See “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 10—Long-term Debt, Net,” for a more detailed discussion of the material terms of our Amended Credit Agreement.

We were in compliance with our financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2024. As a result of recent business improvements, benefits from the Amended Credit Agreement, and actions taken by management in the current fiscal year to reduce operating costs, and raise additional capital, management believes that there is no longer substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the accompanying unaudited financial statements are being issued. However, debt service requirements in the future require that we continue to execute our plans both in terms of operations and financial results. Additionally, unforeseen events or changes in assumptions may occur and result in material differences between our future financial results or forecasts and the current financial forecast, and those differences could result in management concluding in the future, as it has in the past, that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern based upon the new information.

We also have an ATM Facility under which we may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock having aggregate gross proceeds of up to $50.0 million. We will pay a commission of up to 3.0% of gross sales proceeds of any common stock sold under the ATM Facility. The aggregate market value of shares eligible for sale under the ATM Facility will be subject to the limitations of General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, to the extent required under such instruction. See “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 11—Stockholder’s Equity,” for a more detailed discussion of the material terms of our ATM Facility.

As of September 30, 2024, our material cash requirements from known contractual obligations and commitments relate primarily to operating leases for our office, manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution facilities. See “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 7—Leases,” for a discussion of our lease obligations reflected on our balance sheet.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, net cash flows used in operating activities, used in investing activities, and used in financing activities (in thousands):

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities consists primarily of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items (including depreciation and amortization, bad debt expense, deferred taxes, loss on disposal of property, plant, and equipment, inventory reserve, amortization of debt issuance costs, and stock-based compensation expense), and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $11.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which primarily consisted of net loss of $21.0 million plus net adjustments for non-cash charges of $12.4 million, offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.9 million. The primary non-cash adjustments to net loss included $4.9 million of depreciation and amortization, a $4.2 million provision for inventory, $2.9 million of stock-based compensation, and $0.3 million of amortization of debt financing costs. The main drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities were a $0.9 million increase in prepaid and other current assets, a $0.7 million decrease in accrued liabilities, a $0.7 million increase in accounts receivable, a $0.4 million decrease in accounts payable, and a $0.3 million increase in inventories, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease other non-current assets.

Net cash used in operating activities was $15.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which primarily consisted of net loss of $26.1 million plus net adjustments for non-cash charges of $10.8 million, offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.6 million. The primary non-cash adjustments to net loss included $4.0 million of depreciation and amortization, $3.1 million of stock-based compensation, a $2.2 million impairment charge related to long-lived assets, $0.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt, and $0.4 million in amortization of debt financing costs. The main drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities were a $0.9 million decrease in accounts payable, a $0.7 million increase in accounts receivable, a $0.7 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, partially offset by a $0.8 million increase in accrued liabilities, a $0.6 million decrease in inventories, and a $0.3 million decrease other non-current assets.

 

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $25.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which consisted of purchases of short-term investments of $25.4 million and purchases of property, plant, and equipment of $0.6 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of certain long-lived assets of $0.1 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which consisted of purchases of property, plant, and equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $10.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which was primarily attributable to net proceeds from the July 2024 Offering of $15.2 million, proceeds from financed insurance premiums of $0.4 million and proceeds of $0.1 million from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan, partially offset by the repayment of financed insurance premiums of $0.6 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $13.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which was primarily attributable to proceeds from the September 2023 Offerings of $22.9 million and proceeds from financed insurance premiums of $1.0 million, partially offset by repayment of long-term debt of $10.0 million, repayment of financed insurance premiums of $0.3 million and payment of offering costs of $0.4 million related to the ATM Facility. We also received proceeds of $0.1 million from the exercise of stock options and $0.1 million from issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For a discussion of our critical accounting estimates, refer to "Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" in Part II, Item 7 and the notes to our financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See also Note 2, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates since our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. As long as we qualify as an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to:

reduced obligations with respect to financial data, including presenting only two years of audited financial statements;
an exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements in our periodic reports, proxy statements, and registration statements; and
exemptions from the requirements of holding non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption from adopting new or revised accounting standards, and, therefore, we will not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies or that have opted out of using such extended transition period, which may make comparison of our financial statements with those of other public companies more difficult. We may take advantage of these reporting

29


 

exemptions until we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, or, with respect to adoption of certain new or revised accounting standards, until we irrevocably elect to opt out of using the extended transition period.

Under the JOBS Act, we will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of:

the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.235 billion or more;
the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the closing of our IPO;
the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; and
the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) (i.e., the first day of the fiscal year after we have (i) more than $700.0 million in outstanding common equity held by our non-affiliates, measured each year on the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and (ii) been public for at least 12 months).

We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an emerging growth company. We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies until the fiscal year following the determination that (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $250.0 million measured on the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and our annual revenues are more than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year or (ii) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700.0 million measured on the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

A description of recent accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows is disclosed in Note 2, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act for this reporting period and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are not a party to any material legal proceedings at this time. From time to time, we may become involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. For example, we may in the future become involved in legal proceedings relating to customers, employees, suppliers, competitors, government agencies, or others. We will evaluate any claims and lawsuits with respect to their potential merits, our potential defenses and counter claims, and the expected effect on us of defending the claims and a potential adverse result. However, the results of any litigation, investigation, or other legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable and potentially expensive. Any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, damage our reputation, require significant amounts of management time, and divert significant resources. If any legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to us, or we were to enter into a settlement arrangement, we could be exposed to monetary damages or limits on our ability to operate our business, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Information pertaining to loss contingencies, including those arising out of potential legal liabilities and related matters, are described in Note 16, Contingencies, to our condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

While we attempt to identify, manage, and mitigate risks and uncertainties associated with our business to the extent practical under the circumstances, some level of risk and uncertainty will always be present. Item 1A—“Risk Factors” in the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K describes some of the risks and uncertainties associated with our business, which we strongly encourage you to review. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, projected results, and future prospects. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We have incurred operating losses in the past and may incur losses in the future.

We have incurred operating losses in the past, may incur operating losses in the future and may never achieve or maintain profitability. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred net losses of $7.6 million and $21.0 million, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we incurred net losses of $10.2 million and $26.1 million, respectively. We have incurred and will continue to incur costs in connection with legal, accounting, and other administrative expenses related to operating as a public company and we expect that our operating expenses will increase modestly with the growth of our business. Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through revenue from our products, the sale of our equity securities (including through our June 2021 IPO, September 2023 registered direct offering and private placements as well as our July 2024 private placements), and debt. While our revenue has generally grown over the last several years, it decreased in 2023 compared to 2022. If our revenue declines or fails to grow at a rate sufficient to offset our operating expenses, we will not be able to achieve and maintain profitability in future periods. We may never be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or maintain profitability, and our more recent growth and historical profitability should not be considered predictive of our future performance.

A significant portion of our total outstanding shares of common stock are available for immediate resale and may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares of common stock intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our common stock. All shares sold in our IPO were freely tradable upon such sale without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares held by our affiliates, as that term is defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act (Rule 144), including our directors, executive officers, and other affiliates (including Telegraph Hill Partners), which may be sold only in compliance with certain limitations. The shares of our common stock issued in the course of our September 2023 registered direct offering and private placements and July 2024 private placements are now freely tradable, subject to the same limitations applicable to our directors, executive officers, and other affiliates (including Telegraph Hill Partners).

As of September 30, 2024, we have 53,302,993 shares of common stock outstanding, substantially all of which are held by directors, executive officers, and other affiliates and are subject to volume, manner of sale, and other limitations under Rule 144.

The market price of our stock could decline if the holders of currently restricted shares of common stock sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to raise additional funds through future offerings of our shares of common stock or other securities. In addition, shares of our common stock that are issued pursuant to our equity incentive plans and our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) will become eligible for sale in the public market, subject to provisions relating to various vesting agreements, lock-up agreements, and Rule 144, as applicable.

As of September 30, 2024, there were 312,174, 1,529,495 and 2,265,572 shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding stock option awards under the 2016 Stock Plan, as amended (2016 Plan), the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (2020 Plan) and the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (2021 Plan), respectively. In addition, the 2021 Plan and the ESPP provide for annual automatic increases in the number of shares reserved thereunder. As of January 1, 2024, a total of 4,825,264 and 976,045 shares of common stock were available and have been reserved for future issuance under the 2021 Plan and our ESPP, respectively. In the future, we may also issue our securities in connection with investments or acquisitions. The amount of shares of our common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding shares of our common stock. Any issuance of additional securities in connection with investments or acquisitions may result in additional dilution to you.

32


 

We face risks arising from our recent and possible future workforce reductions, including adverse effects on employee morale, risks to our ability to meet customer demand with adequate turnaround times, and uncertainty around our ability to achieve anticipated cost savings from the workforce reductions.

During the roughly twelve-month period from February 2023 to January 2024, we undertook two strategic reductions in our workforce designed both to align the costs of our business with our near-term revenue expectations and to create operational and management-level efficiencies. These workforce reductions may result in unintended consequences, such as attrition beyond the intended number of employees, reduced morale among our remaining employees, and the loss of institutional knowledge and expertise. In addition, while we have eliminated positions, we might not successfully distribute the duties and obligations of our former employees among our remaining employees. The reductions in workforce could also make it difficult for us to pursue, or prevent us from pursuing, new opportunities and initiatives due to insufficient personnel, or require us to incur additional and unanticipated costs to hire new personnel to pursue such opportunities or initiatives.

We cannot provide assurance that we will not undertake additional workforce reductions or that we will be able to realize the cost savings and other anticipated benefits from our previous or any future workforce reductions. In addition, our previous and any future workforce reductions may adversely affect our ability to respond rapidly to any new product, growth, or revenue opportunities, to meet customer demand with adequate turnaround times, and otherwise to execute on our business plans. Additionally, reductions in workforce may make it more difficult to recruit and retain new employees. If we need to increase the size of our workforce in the future, we may encounter a competitive hiring market due to labor shortages, increased employee turnover, changes in the availability of workers, and increased wage costs.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting, Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations.

The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024 (the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Refer to Notes to Financial Statements—Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” within the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a full list of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The information in those notes has not changed except as a result of normal adjustments in the interim periods.

Teknova has determined that it operates in one reporting unit, one operating segment, and one reportable segment, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Company reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance.

Going Concern

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern, requires management to evaluate an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the financial statements are available for issuance. Management performed an assessment to determine whether there were conditions or events that, considered individually or in the aggregate, raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the accompanying unaudited financial statements are being issued.

Previous going concern assessments indicated negative conditions and events related to the Company’s limited capital resources to fund ongoing operations and the Company’s ability to comply with future financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement (defined in Note 10), both of which raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as described in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. However, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2024 and as a result of recent business improvements and actions taken by management in the current fiscal year to amend its credit agreement, reduce operating costs, and raise additional capital (as described further in Note 2 below), management believes that there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the accompanying

unaudited financial statements are being issued. Debt service requirements in the future require that the Company continues to execute its plans both in terms of operations and financial results. Additionally, unforeseen events or changes in assumptions may occur and result in material differences between the Company’s future financial results or forecasts and the current financial forecast, and those differences could result in management concluding in the future that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern based upon the new information.

Private Placement Offering

On July 11, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement) and a registration rights agreement in connection with a private placement (the Offering) with certain accredited investors. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to offer and sell in the Offering 12,385,883 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.00001 par value per share, at an offering price of $1.24 per share. The Company’s controlling stockholder, Telegraph Hill Partners Management Company LLC, through its affiliates Telegraph Hill Partners V, L.P. and THP V Affiliates Fund LLC, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and member of its board of directors, Stephen Gunstream, and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Matthew Lowell, participated in the Offering and, collectively, purchased an aggregate of 12,217,740 shares. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $15.4 million from the Offering, before deducting offering expenses of $0.2 million. Offering expenses were included as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet. The Offering closed on July 12, 2024.

Reduction in Workforce

On January 11, 2024, the Company carried out a reduction in workforce of approximately 35 positions, aimed at reducing operating expenses. The Company incurred $1.3 million of costs in connection with the reduction in workforce related to severance pay and other termination benefits. The costs associated with the reduction in workforce were recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2024, in general and administrative expenses.

On February 1, 2023, the Company carried out a reduction in workforce of approximately 40 positions, aimed at reducing operating expenses. The Company incurred $0.7 million of costs in connection with the reduction in workforce related to severance pay and other termination benefits. The costs associated with the reduction in workforce were recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2023, in general and administrative expenses.

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC 480) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

Short-term Held-to-Maturity Investments

The Company invests excess cash balances in short-term U.S. Treasuries. Investments are classified based on the facts and circumstances present at the time of purchase. The appropriateness of that classification is subsequently reassessed at each reporting date. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has both the ability and intention to hold these investments until maturity and therefore has classified these investments as held-to-maturity and recorded them at amortized cost which approximates fair value and presented them in “Short-term investments, held -to-maturity” on the balance sheet. The fair value of the Company's short-term investments was based on quoted prices in active markets for these investments (Level 1). The income recognized for these investments is recorded within interest income on the statement of operations.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. Additionally, all disclosure requirements under the guidance are also required for public entities with a single reportable segment. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all

prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company will first apply this standard in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and continues to evaluate the impact this standard will have on the Company’s disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure in the rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciliation items in some categories if the items meet a quantitative threshold. The guidance also requires disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal (national), state and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Recent Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Final Rules Not Yet Adopted

In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, which requires registrants to provide certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports. The rules require information about a registrant’s climate-related risks that have materially impacted, or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business, results of operations, or financial condition. In addition, certain disclosures related to severe weather events and other natural conditions will be required in the registrant’s audited financial statements. Disclosure requirements will begin phasing in for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. On April 4, 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these new final rules on its financial statements and disclosures.

Revenue Recognition

Note 3. Revenue Recognition

Teknova recognizes revenue from the sale of manufactured products and services when the Company transfers control of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Control is transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain benefits from the goods or services. The majority of the Company’s sales agreements contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer.

Long-Term Debt, Net

Note 10. Long-term Debt, Net

On March 8, 2024, the Company entered into limited waivers and amendments (collectively Amendment No. 5) to (i) the May 10, 2022, Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement (Term Loan), as amended on November 8, 2022, March 28, 2023, July 13, 2023, and September 19, 2023 and (ii) the May 10, 2022, Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement (Revolving Loan) as amended on November 8, 2022, March 28, 2023, July 13, 2023 and September 19, 2023 (together, the Amended Credit Agreement), in each case with the Company as borrower and with MidCap Financial Trust (MidCap) as agent and lender, and the additional lenders from time to time party thereto.

Amendment No. 5 modifies the credit facility established under the Amended Credit Agreement, which provided for a $57.1 million credit facility (the Credit Facility) consisting of a $52.1 million senior secured term loan (the Term Loan) and a $5.0 million working capital facility (the Revolver).

The interest on the Term Loan is based on the forward-looking one-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate adjusted upward by 0.10% (Term SOFR) plus an applicable margin of 7.00%, subject to a Term SOFR floor of 4.50%. If any advance under the Term Loan is prepaid at any time, a prepayment fee is charged based on the amount being prepaid and an applicable percentage amount, such as 4%, 3%, or 1%, based on the date the prepayment is made. Interest on an outstanding balance under the Revolver is payable monthly in arrears at an annual rate of Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 4.00%, subject to a Term SOFR floor of 4.50%.

The Amended Credit Agreement includes minimum net revenue requirements that are measured on a trailing twelve-month basis and a minimum cash requirement. Amendment No. 5 reduced the minimum net revenue requirements for future periods up to and including for the twelve months ending December 31, 2024—for example, the Company’s minimum net revenue requirement was reduced for the twelve months ending December 31, 2024, from $42.0 million to $34.0 million. Amendment No. 5 also removed those requirements for the periods ending January 31, 2025 through December 31, 2025, instead requiring that for each applicable twelve-month period ending after December 31, 2024, the Company’s minimum net revenue requirement will be determined by MidCap in its reasonable discretion in consultation with the Company’s senior management and based on financial statements and projections delivered to MidCap in accordance with the financial reporting requirements in the Amended Credit Agreement, so long as the minimum net revenue requirements for those periods shall not be less than the greater of (x) the applicable minimum net revenue requirement for the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the immediately preceding month and (y) $34.0 million. In addition, Amendment No. 5 also removed the advance rate for finished goods inventory in the determination of the borrowing base for the Revolver and increased the minimum cash requirement from $9.0 million to $10.0 million. Under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, cash and cash equivalents as well as short-term investments in U.S. Treasuries are included in the determination of the minimum cash covenant. Finally, Amendment No. 5 conditions the next borrowing under the Revolver on the Company achieving net revenue for the preceding twelve-month period of at least $38.0 million down from $45.0 million. As a condition to the effectiveness of Amendment No. 5, the Company also issued an equity-classified warrant with a fair value of $0.1 million as described further in “Note 11. Stockholder’s Equity.” This warrant was recorded as additional debt issuance costs, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Amended Credit Agreement using the effective interest method.

The maturity date of the Credit Facility is May 1, 2027. On the date of termination of the Term Loan or the date on which the obligations under the Term Loan become due and payable in full, the Company will pay an exit fee in an amount equal to 9.00% of the total aggregate principal amount of term loans made pursuant to the Term Loan (including amendments thereto) as of such date. All loans issued under the Credit Facility are collateralized by the Company’s assets.

Note 11. Stockholders’ Equity

At-the-Market Facility

On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a sales agreement (the ATM Facility) with Cowen and Company, LLC (Cowen), under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of its common stock having aggregate gross proceeds of up to $50.0 million. The issuance and sale of these shares pursuant to the ATM Facility are deemed “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and are registered under the Securities Act. The Company will pay a commission of up to 3.0% of gross sales proceeds of any common stock sold under the ATM Facility. The aggregate market value of shares eligible for sale under the ATM Facility will be subject to the limitations of General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, to the extent required under such instruction.

Warrant to Purchase Common Stock

On March 8, 2024, as a condition to the effectiveness of Amendment No. 5, the Company issued to MidCap Funding XXVII a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 125,000 shares (the Common Warrant) of common stock with an exercise price of $2.9934 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein.

The Company determined that the Common Warrant is not a liability within the scope of ASC 480, but met the requirements to be classified within stockholders’ equity, because the warrant is indexed to the Company’s common stock and met all of the conditions for equity classification in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Common Warrant was recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital in the statements of stockholders’ equity at the time of issuance. The Common Warrant was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) fair value of common stock of $2.8500, (ii) exercise price of $2.9934, (iii) term of 5 years, (iv) dividend rate of 0%, (v) volatility of 36.70%, and (vi) risk free interest rate of 4.06%.

On October 15, 2024, MidCap exercised the Common Warrant in full and the Company issued 65,036 shares of common stock through a cashless exercise in accordance with the conversion terms.

Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company maintains a stock incentive plan that permits the granting of incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance awards, and other stock-based awards. The equity-based awards for employees generally vest over a four-year period, pursuant to two different vesting schedules. For initial equity-based awards granted to employees, the first vest is generally a one-year cliff vest, followed by monthly vesting for the final three years. Thereafter, annual equity-based awards granted to employees typically vest monthly over the four-year vest term. The initial equity-based awards granted to the Company’s non-employee, independent directors upon appointment to the board of directors will vest over a three-year period, with the first vest being a one-year cliff, followed by monthly vesting over the remaining two years. Thereafter, annual equity-based awards granted to the Company’s non-employee, independent directors will cliff vest after one year from the date of grant.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company maintains an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP) that authorizes the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to purchase rights granted to eligible employees. Unless otherwise determined by the Company’s board of directors, shares of the Company’s common stock will be purchased for the accounts of employees participating in the Company’s ESPP at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the first day of an offering; or (ii) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of purchase. Offering periods are generally six months long; offering periods begin on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Company issued zero and 54,314 shares of common stock under the ESPP during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The Company issued zero and 82,034 shares of common stock under the ESPP during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Repricing of Outstanding and Unexercised Options

In January 2024, the Company’s board of directors approved a one-time repricing of certain previously granted and still outstanding vested and unvested stock option awards held by eligible employees, executive officers, and non-employee directors. As a result, the exercise price for these awards will be lowered to $2.97 per share effective September 14, 2025, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Stock Market on March 14, 2024, so long as the holder remains employed by the Company or continues to serve as a member of the board of directors through September 14, 2025 absent earlier trigger events defined in the option repricing plan. No other terms of the stock options were modified, and the stock options will continue to vest according to their original vesting schedules and will retain their original expiration dates. As a result of the repricing, 1,631,016 vested and unvested stock options outstanding as of March 14, 2024, with original exercise prices ranging from $3.02 to $27.49, were repriced.

The repricing on March 14, 2024, resulted in incremental stock-based compensation expense of $0.9 million, of which $0.5 million related to vested stock option awards and was expensed on the repricing date. The remaining $0.4 million related to unvested stock option awards and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted-average vesting period of those awards of approximately 2.38 years as of March 14, 2024.

Note 13. Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Companys income tax benefit was not significant, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, when the Company recorded a minimal income tax provision. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 0.1% and (0.1)%, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate primarily due to operating losses not expected to produce an income tax benefit.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Companys income tax benefit was not significant, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when the Company recorded a minimal income tax provision. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 0.2% and (0.0)%, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate primarily due to operating losses not expected to produce an income tax benefit.

The Company had insignificant unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2024 and 2023. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not expect the balance of unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next twelve months. The Company has not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2024 or 2023.

Net Loss Per Share

Note 14. Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents to the extent they are dilutive. For purposes of this calculation, stock options, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase rights, and warrants to purchase common stock, are considered to be common stock equivalents but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive for all periods presented.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Contingencies

Note 16. Contingencies

From time to time, we may become involved in lawsuits and other claims arising from our ordinary course of business. The Company regularly evaluates its exposure to threatened or pending litigation and other business contingencies. Because of the uncertainties related to the amount of loss from litigation and other business contingencies, the recording of losses relating to such exposures requires significant judgment about the potential range of outcomes. We establish loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. If a loss is not both probable and reasonably estimable, or if an exposure to loss exists in excess of the amount accrued, the Company assesses whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred. If there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred, the Company will disclose the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss if it is material and an estimate can be made, or disclose that such an estimate cannot be made. The determination as to whether a loss can reasonably be considered to be possible or probable is based on our assessment, together with legal counsel, regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter. As additional information about current or future litigation or other contingencies becomes available, the Company will assess whether adjustments should be made to legal accruals.

In August 2023, a former Teknova employee filed a claim with the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency alleging various causes of action under California’s labor, wage, and hour laws. The plaintiff generally alleged that Teknova did not appropriately calculate and pay meal break premiums and otherwise failed to calculate and pay appropriate overtime wages or bonuses to certain of its California non-exempt employees. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had accrued its best estimate of potential loss related to a possible settlement of the claims of the former employee and other employees who may assert similar claims, in the amount of $0.3 million, which is included within “Accrued liabilities” on the Balance Sheet. On June 6, 2024, a mediation took place, in the course of which Teknova agreed to settle the plaintiff’s claims for $0.4 million (the Settlement), resulting in an incremental accrual of $0.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Because the plaintiff brought his claims on behalf of himself as an individual and as a representative of a purported class of others similarly situated, a court must approve the Settlement before Teknova will pay any amounts pursuant to the Settlement. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has therefore accrued $0.4 million within “Accrued liabilities” on the Balance Sheet.

Basis of Accounting, Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations.

The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024 (the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Refer to Notes to Financial Statements—Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” within the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a full list of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The information in those notes has not changed except as a result of normal adjustments in the interim periods.

Teknova has determined that it operates in one reporting unit, one operating segment, and one reportable segment, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Company reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance.

Going Concern

Going Concern

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern, requires management to evaluate an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the financial statements are available for issuance. Management performed an assessment to determine whether there were conditions or events that, considered individually or in the aggregate, raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the accompanying unaudited financial statements are being issued.

Previous going concern assessments indicated negative conditions and events related to the Company’s limited capital resources to fund ongoing operations and the Company’s ability to comply with future financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement (defined in Note 10), both of which raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as described in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. However, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2024 and as a result of recent business improvements and actions taken by management in the current fiscal year to amend its credit agreement, reduce operating costs, and raise additional capital (as described further in Note 2 below), management believes that there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the date on which the accompanying

unaudited financial statements are being issued. Debt service requirements in the future require that the Company continues to execute its plans both in terms of operations and financial results. Additionally, unforeseen events or changes in assumptions may occur and result in material differences between the Company’s future financial results or forecasts and the current financial forecast, and those differences could result in management concluding in the future that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern based upon the new information.

Private Placement Offering

Private Placement Offering

On July 11, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement) and a registration rights agreement in connection with a private placement (the Offering) with certain accredited investors. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to offer and sell in the Offering 12,385,883 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.00001 par value per share, at an offering price of $1.24 per share. The Company’s controlling stockholder, Telegraph Hill Partners Management Company LLC, through its affiliates Telegraph Hill Partners V, L.P. and THP V Affiliates Fund LLC, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and member of its board of directors, Stephen Gunstream, and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Matthew Lowell, participated in the Offering and, collectively, purchased an aggregate of 12,217,740 shares. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $15.4 million from the Offering, before deducting offering expenses of $0.2 million. Offering expenses were included as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet. The Offering closed on July 12, 2024.

Reduction in Workforce

Reduction in Workforce

On January 11, 2024, the Company carried out a reduction in workforce of approximately 35 positions, aimed at reducing operating expenses. The Company incurred $1.3 million of costs in connection with the reduction in workforce related to severance pay and other termination benefits. The costs associated with the reduction in workforce were recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2024, in general and administrative expenses.

On February 1, 2023, the Company carried out a reduction in workforce of approximately 40 positions, aimed at reducing operating expenses. The Company incurred $0.7 million of costs in connection with the reduction in workforce related to severance pay and other termination benefits. The costs associated with the reduction in workforce were recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2023, in general and administrative expenses
Warrants

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC 480) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

Short-term Held-to-Maturity Investments

Short-term Held-to-Maturity Investments

The Company invests excess cash balances in short-term U.S. Treasuries. Investments are classified based on the facts and circumstances present at the time of purchase. The appropriateness of that classification is subsequently reassessed at each reporting date. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has both the ability and intention to hold these investments until maturity and therefore has classified these investments as held-to-maturity and recorded them at amortized cost which approximates fair value and presented them in “Short-term investments, held -to-maturity” on the balance sheet. The fair value of the Company's short-term investments was based on quoted prices in active markets for these investments (Level 1). The income recognized for these investments is recorded within interest income on the statement of operations.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. Additionally, all disclosure requirements under the guidance are also required for public entities with a single reportable segment. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all

prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company will first apply this standard in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and continues to evaluate the impact this standard will have on the Company’s disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure in the rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciliation items in some categories if the items meet a quantitative threshold. The guidance also requires disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal (national), state and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Recent Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Final Rules Not Yet Adopted

Recent Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Final Rules Not Yet Adopted

In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, which requires registrants to provide certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports. The rules require information about a registrant’s climate-related risks that have materially impacted, or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business, results of operations, or financial condition. In addition, certain disclosures related to severe weather events and other natural conditions will be required in the registrant’s audited financial statements. Disclosure requirements will begin phasing in for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. On April 4, 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these new final rules on its financial statements and disclosures.
